I went to a late showing at the Detroit Science Center's IMAX theater on Friday night with Colin and his brother, who came from Toledo to spend the night. The theater is a little crazy, with its dome ceiling. Before the movie started, they played that song from the opening credits of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy and did, like, a mini light show. It was weird.

I really enjoyed the movie, despite my long-standing disinterest in all things sci fi. It was a good story that was paced well, and hit all the right notes of drama, comedy, romance, action. It was good.

But both times when the man responsible for The Family That Preys appeared on-screen, I turned to Colin and asked, "Wait, isn't that Tyler Perry?" And he replied, "No, no, that's just a guy that's in a lot of his movies."

Full Disclosure

In the interest of full disclosure, I want you to know that I've joined the Amazon Associates program. When I mention a book or DVD in my posts, there will now be a link that takes you to that product on Amazon.com. If a reader follows the link and purchases the product, I earn a 4% commission. I think I'll put money earned toward buying books for Kindle on PC. So if you see a product mentioned that you want to buy, following the link from my blog will help me get more books to read for this project. If you don't, no hard feelings.
